Lu Yunfan lowered her head, not saying anything for a while. However, Lin Chen already understood what Lu Yunfan meant, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
“I know what you mean!” Lin Chen replied.
“It’s good that you know, Brother Lin Chen…” Lu Yunfan heaved a sigh of relief and reached for the cup of water on the table to drink some water. After saying so much, she was so thirsty.
“You’re waiting for me to propose…” Lin Chen added.
“Pfft…” Lu Yunfan spat out a mouthful of water.
Lu Yunfan wanted to deny it, but she couldn’t…
After holding it in for a long time, Lu Yunfan gritted her teeth and said, “That’s right! I’m just waiting for Brother Lin Chen to propose. So, Brother Lin Chen, are you going to do it?”
After saying this, Lu Yunfan covered her face with her hand. It felt like she had just used up a tremendous amount of courage in her life.
If Brother Lin Chen were to reject her, it would be too embarrassing!
But she had been tricked by Brother Lin Chen…
Lu Yunfan didn’t hear Lin Chen’s reply, so she squatted awkwardly between the sofa and the coffee table, wanting to hide.
“Erm… Brother Lin Chen, I’m just joking. Don’t mind me!” Lu Yunfan was extremely embarrassed.
“If we’re still together in half a year, let’s get married!” Lin Chen suddenly said.
“Huh?” Lu Yunfan looked up. Her face was so red that it looked like it almost dripped blood. She thought she had misheard and was in disbelief.
Lin Chen put down the pen in his hand and tapped his index finger on the desk, saying, “I said if we’re still together in half a year, let’s get married!”
What kind of immortal development was this?
Was Brother Lin Chen… talking to her about marriage?
Lu Yunfan’s heart was beating so fast that she couldn’t take it anymore. All she could hear was Lin Chen’s words… Let’s get married!
Get married!
Wasn’t this development a little too fast?
Lu Yunfan paused for a long time before saying, “Brother Lin Chen… are you serious? If we don’t break up and are still together by then, are you really going to marry me?”
“If we don’t break up after persisting for half a year, it means that you’re serious. I’m serious too. Since that’s the case, let’s officially be together!”
Lu Yunfan’s eyes darted around…
Officially Together?
Could it be that Brother Lin Chen felt that dating wasn’t considered official?
A bolt from the blue!
She had thought that they had officially gotten together! She had thought that her relationship with Brother Lin Chen had already come to fruition, but in Brother Lin Chen’s heart, dating wasn’t considered officially together?
Lu Yunfan felt like she had returned to the point before liberation!
She pursed her lips and cheered herself on. She then said her term to Lin Chen, “Then… the last month should be included in that half a year.”
Lin Chen lowered his head and laughed softly…
“What are you laughing at…” Lu Yunfan’s face heated up even more. By saying such a term, didn’t it mean she no longer had any reservations as a girl and make her seem especially desperate to marry Brother Lin Chen?
“If you want to count it in, just count it in!” Lin Chen said.
The word “count” was at the tip of Lu Yunfan’s tongue, but she forced herself to curb her excitement and swallow the word down.
Eh? Why did he give her the ball again…
Did he feel that she was too desperate when he said that?
She was a girl, wasn’t it a bad thing for her to rush to marry someone?
Even if she would have suffered a great loss, if Brother Lin Chen said it shouldn’t count, then it would be fine!
Why was Brother Lin Chen always making things difficult for her by making her look so desperate?
Lu Yunfan gritted her teeth. Forget it… so what if she was embarrassed if she could win over Brother Lin Chen?
“Of course not!” Lu Yunfan bit her lower lip, cleared her throat, and said seriously, “I spent the past month earnestly with you. I can’t… I can’t just ignore that and pretend it didn’t happen!”
“Okay, then don’t ignore it…” There was a hint of a smile in Lin Chen’s deep voice.
On the other end of the line, Lu Yunfan’s face was extremely red. She tried her best to hold back her laughter and lowered her head…
Neither of them spoke. Just like that, they held their phones and listened to each other’s breathing, as if they could feel the sweetness in the air.
It wasn’t until Lu Yunfan heard the sound of Lin Chen’s secretary asking Lin Chen to look at the documents that Lu Yunfan rubbed her nose and said, “Then, Brother Lin Chen, go ahead and get busy! I’ll… see you later!”
“Okay, see you later!”
After hanging up the call, the secretary saw the smile on Lin Chen’s face and guessed that it was Lu Yunfan on the other end of the line, and that she might have buttered up to him again. Hence, Lin Chen was in such a good mood.
However, after Lin Chen’s arrangement earlier, the secretary was so frightened that he didn’t dare say anything about it. He only placed the documents on the table and sensibly retreated.
Of course, he didn’t dare to reveal half a word to the people in the secretary’s office.
That afternoon, when Lin Chen drove to the Lin Jianyun gallery to pick up Lu Yunfan, he saw a flushed Lu Yunfan.
The young lady hid her chubby red face in her scarf and obediently sat in the front passenger seat without saying a word. She looked completely different from how she usually chattered.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Lin Chen held onto the steering wheel with one hand and rolled down the car window a little, afraid that Lu Yunfan would feel hot.
“No… it’s just that…” Lu Yunfan bit her lip and restrained her laughter. If she could hold on for another five months, she would be able to get married to Brother Lin Chen. If she couldn’t hold back her laughter, what would she do?
She couldn’t, she couldn’t. She felt that when the two of them discussed marriage, she was no longer reserved. She couldn’t be so smug anymore…
“I was just thinking about what to cook for Brother Lin Chen later. How about corn egg?” Lu Yunfan asked.
Lin Chen was speechless.
This child probably only knew how to make corn eggs!
“Do you have any other ingredients at home?” Lin Chen asked.
Lu Yunfan thought about it and shook her head. “There are only fruits and whatnot. The housekeeper knows I’m not eating at home, so there are only snacks like yogurt and fruits in the fridge.”
Lin Chen nodded. “Is there a supermarket nearby?”
“Of course! I know them all!” Lu Yunfan answered loudly with a proud look on her face. “I know all the big and small supermarkets around my place. I know which convenience store’s oden tastes good, and which supermarket has the best homemade breadsticks! I know it all!”
“Then pick a supermarket with fresh ingredients. We’ll buy some ingredients first!”
“Okay!” Lu Yunfan immediately took out her phone. “I’ll guide the way, Brother Lin Chen!”
The young lady came out of her shy and excited state and guided Lin Chen.
However, when the young lady saw Lin Chen picking out fresh vegetables, sea fish, and meat at the supermarket, her petite face nearly collapsed again, and her palms were covered in sweat…
